That is an interesting rear bumper, is it strong enough to provide any protection? Or primarily just for looks?

The rear bumper is acctually rails that where mounted on the top of eatch rear fender.

My Cleveland was shipt from U.S and so was the C4, so now its one less in U.S

Then Welcome! I don't believe I've ever seen a truck that had the parking light bezels painted body color. I like it.

i´m looking for chromed,stainless or aluminum grill, bezels, bumpers.
i want the truck to look something like this when i´m done
(but the 65 grill and so)

Hi, and welcome to the site.

I have a '62 and will be putting in a 351C. I noticed your headers and wonder if you know what they are from?

Due to location of steering box, etc., that last tube on drivers' side can't go back too far before heading downward. I guess that's why the exhaust is routed to pass. side on the 292 that's in there now. If I switch steering colums to loose the 3spd linkage it might create some room.

Anyone out there know of a header for 351C in a '62? Will be using a C4.

Thanks!

T-bird -69 9" rearaxle
Ford Explorer -00 rear discbrakes and calipers
Ford Mustang front calipers and Volvo Amazon discs.

SO, I see you have the exploder brakes on a 9".... did they bolt right on, or did you have to do a lot of altering? OH, I forgot, the reason these guys told me no was because my 5x5.5 axles...

Also, these Volvo Amazon disks on the front, what spindles are they on? stock 65 spindles? that sounds intriguing...


Anyway, welcome to the forum.
